This query is : Resolved
What will be the consequence if I do not respond to a court notice I received as a respondent? I have been made a party in the case where I have no role. Ex-party judgement is acceptable to me.
Can I send a reply by post?

Unable to appear as I had to go out of station. Any ex-parte judgement is acceptable to me. Kindly advise if I can respond by post?

When U R inclined to go out of station, and any ex-parte decree is acceptable forget about the case.

If you are ready to accept the exparte decree against you, what is your worry now?

Mr. NC Mistry,
When you are not ready to respond to not respond to a court notice that you received as a respondentbear and ex-party judgement is acceptable to you, why you are showing any anxiety to know the consequences?
Let that be your destiny.
Irrespective of whether you have have no role, you have to establish that in the court of law, as a respondent, not on this page.

I thought, it may be an offence not to respond. Now, I understand that it may not be an offence as such. Thank you all.

Nobody has any objection if you prfer to live in fools paradise.
But, be sure, your academic query is not likely to be answered in a manner you like to get solution in a way you are trying through your supplementary post, "I thought, it may be an offence not to respond. Now, I understand that it may not be an offence as such. Thank you all," there being no justification after you received reply to your original query.
So, be patient with your own understanding.

Dear Sir,
I must thank you for your replies. My query was not academic. I am not a lawyer and was only worried if the consequence of not responding will lead to so kind of offence to the court. I understand from the replies of the learned lawyers that I have to be ready for an ex-parte judgement if I do not respond.
Regards.
